Translation

Lord, help Nikephoros vestes and charistikarios of the monastery of St. Isauros.

Commentary

In line 3 (reverse) the last visible letter is rounded and may be a C; line 4: the letters EIC are clear; they appear to be followed by a lambda and another triangular letter, such as alpha. The reading to this point is assured by the parallel specimen in the Paris collection, the final portion of which may be read: (καὶ) χαρ[ι]στικαρ(ίῳ) μον(ῆς) τοῦ ἁ[γ(ίου)] Εἰσαυ[ρ]οῦ.
